Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 89 A True Drama Queen?

Upon hearing Baiyu's words, Yeshan and his companion paused in their steps.

Level 80? Ye Shan was so excited that he only noticed the changes in his martial soul and didn't sense himself at all.

Now, as the white fish lifted him up, a surge of intense soul power welled up within him.

"Brother Ye? Is what Young Master Bai said true? Really level 80?"

At this moment, Liu Yuan seemed even more excited than Ye Shan. As an old friend who had known Ye Shan since they were young, he was really anxious!

Over the years, his old brother had been immersed in the past, his will was depressed, and his soul power had not made any progress. He saw this and was anxious.

Ye Shan's face flushed slightly. He was also very excited, but now was not the time to talk about this. The more benefits he received, the more awkward it would be at this moment!
After nodding to Liu Yuan, he quickly thanked Bai Yu.

"Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Bai. I understand. However, the Ye family is currently preoccupied with many matters, and I must also follow Young Master Bai's advice to stabilize my soul power. I must take my leave now."

"I apologize for Ye Shan's inability to accompany you in person, Young Master Bai!"

Bai Yu smiled, waved his hand, and said to Ye Shan:

"It's alright, these are all minor matters. Elder Ye, please feel free to do as you please."

After exchanging pleasantries, Ye Shan and Liu Yuan quickly made their escape.

Bai Yu turned around, about to greet Ye Lingling, when he noticed Ye Qingyin looking at him with a smile.

"Why is Aunt Ye looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Bai Yu awkwardly wiped his face and asked her with a surprised expression.

Ye Qingyin shook her head, narrowed her eyes, and covered her mouth with a soft laugh.

"Hehe, nothing. I just wanted to thank you for letting me see that heartless old man Ye Shan in such an embarrassing situation!"

"what!?"

Bai Yu was utterly astonished. Were the two really that bad off? Had they really reached the point where they were laughing at their father-in-law and even cheering him on?

"Aunt Ye, you...you can't be serious, can you?"

Hearing Ye Qingyin say that, Ye Lingling, who was standing next to her, also felt embarrassed. She reached out and tugged at her unreliable mother, cursing inwardly:
"This mom is hopeless! It's one thing for her to complain about Grandpa to me all the time, but now she's saying it in front of Baiyu. Doesn't she know that family scandals shouldn't be aired in public?!"

Unfortunately, a daughter is only her father's little darling, not her mother's, so Ye Qingyin completely ignored Ye Lingling.

She reached out and pulled her daughter aside, her expression turning somewhat mournful.

"Little Fish, you have no idea how hard my life has been!"

"When Lingling's father decided to personally preside over Lingling's awakening ceremony and pass on his martial spirit to her, my world collapsed!"

“Every time I tried to persuade him to give up this plan, that bastard would use the Ye family’s ancestral precepts to brush me off. I had no choice but to ask that old guy Ye Shan for help and hope that he could step in and persuade him.”

At this point, a hint of hatred appeared in Ye Qingyin's eyes. She gritted her teeth and said angrily:
"I never expected that this old man would actually be so heartless as to watch his son die. He actually hid in the clan's territory and refused to come out. I begged him several times, but I couldn't even see his face!" Huh? Seeing Ye Qingyin's angry expression, Bai Yu didn't know what to do. His usually eloquent mouth was now speechless.

Agree? No way! What's the difference between this and letting brothers fight amongst themselves? It's just that the roles have changed to father-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Persuasion? No way! As the saying goes, "Don't advise others to do good if you haven't experienced their suffering; anyone who tries to persuade others to do good deserves to be struck by lightning!"

Seeing Bai Yu's conflicted expression, Ye Qingyin's eyes flashed with amusement, then she said in a slightly complaining tone:

"So, Little Fish, the Life Gold you used on that old man was a complete waste. That old man is utterly heartless and ruthless!"

"You might as well keep it for Lingling. She's your friend, and who knows, she might become your girlfriend someday. It's such a waste to give it to that old man!"

Bai Yu's eyelids twitched violently. He finally understood that Ye Qingyin, this drama queen, was putting on this sob story just to get the gold of life in his hands!
The surging life force emanating from the Gold of Life makes even strangers know that it is an extremely rare treasure.

As for complaining to him, it was entirely because she was afraid that he was only trying to win over the Ye family, using the money only for the head of the family and not for Lingling, so she came to him to give him a heads-up!
"Hehe, Aunt Ye, there's no need to worry. This Life Gold is something I specially prepared to solve the problem of the Ye family's martial spirit inheritance."

"The life energy contained within can ensure that the martial soul is not damaged during the reshaping process, so not only Patriarch Ye, but Lingling also needs to use it!"

As Bai Yu finished speaking, Ye Lingling understood what her mother was up to, and she was so embarrassed that she scratched her toes on the ground!
He stepped behind Ye Qingyin, pinched her lower back, and said:
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? Baiyu and I are just friends!"

"hiss!"

Ye Qingyin gasped in pain, cursing the brat inwardly. "I've gone to so much trouble to get you some benefits, and you still don't appreciate it?"
As for saving face? What's more important than benefits! Besides, what do I, a woman, need saving face for?
Suppressing the urge to teach Ye Lingling a lesson, Ye Qingyin smiled and said to Bai Yu:
"The old man is right. It's really Lingling's good fortune to have you as a friend. But Xiaoyu, you're quite generous. That Life Gold is a rare treasure, isn't it?"

Bai Yu also noticed Ye Lingling's little actions, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She thought to herself, "You're such a drama queen, now you've been betrayed by your daughter!"

"Aunt Ye is right. The Gold of Life is a special mineral formed by the gathering and condensation of pure life force, and it can be called a treasure of heaven and earth!"

"As for whether I'm willing to give it up or not, putting aside my friendship with Lingling, I've also gained something from the Ye family. As the saying goes, you have to give to receive!"

Bai Yu's words made Ye Qingyin blink and look at him with surprise. "You have to give up something to gain something," that saying is so true.

"Hehe, Xiaoyu, you see things very clearly. In that case, Auntie won't say any more. You should solve Lingling's martial soul problem first. That girl is getting impatient."

Baiyu raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself, "It's not that Lingling is getting impatient, it's that you got pinched too hard, right?"

But he decided to give Ye Qingyin face, so he turned his gaze to Ye Lingling and beckoned her over.

"Alright, Lingling, come here. You saw everything that just happened, so I don't need to explain further. The only thing you need to pay attention to is to keep your mind calm and not let your soul power get out of control!"

Ye Lingling walked to the center of the magic array, sat down cross-legged, released her martial spirit, and nodded solemnly to Bai Yu.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, White Fish."

Baiyu waved his hand, took out a piece of Life Gold, and began to repeat the previous actions. Having had the experience once, he felt much smoother.

Ye Qingyin, who was standing to the side, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Bai Yu kept his word, and then reached out to rub her lower back.
